I do this all the time and it drives me crazy! It always seems to happen either when a) midway through the second to last piece right before dinner is ready, or b) after some kind of annoying problem has just been resolved and I've gotten into a groove (like fighting with fabric, my machine, or incorrect cutting, you name it). I always think to myself, wow, this is really efficient and going well, the bobbin is probably going to run out any second, and yep, sure enough. Either that, or the dog has to go out.

I'll rarely rip things out to fix, but I've recently been attempting to learn paper piecing. I kept sewing the right side of one piece to the wrong side of the other, or cutting the pieces just a wee bit too small. Picking out paper pieced stitches is really annoying, especially if you're trying to save your pattern paper. Sigh. I am finally learning quilting while in a rush is a really bad idea for me. I have to focus and take my time, otherwise I have issues.
